CAN LITTLE CHUCKIE COME OUT AND PLAY NOW?: Little Chuckie My Way: "Grow where you are planted"

"My storey is about my life. I was born in
1939, and my family literally broke apart when
I was "little". I do not recall ever living in a home with my mother and father together.
There were several years I spent in foster care; and then living with Mom and then Dad,
bouncing back and forth a couple of times,
until I was a junior in high school. My father moved, but I didn't. I spent my final year in high school living with a local family, thanks to a basketball coach who took special interest in me. I spent some of my time growing up being a juvenile delinquent; petty theft,
shop-lifting, drinking, smoking and other such irresponsible activities. I made a decision to change my life after my freshman year in high school, and went to live with my father, whom
I already knew was a strict disciplinarian and a very controlling individual. But, I got the chance to start my life over again at age 15. I
made the most of my new start, and I want to tell my story!"
